Meet Your Raleigh Personal Chef & Owners

Chef Zach Merritt

Chef Zach has always been passionate about home cooking while using fresh, seasonal, and local ingredients. There is nothing more satisfying to him than a job well done – and for you, that means a happy stomach! Zach is a life-long learner who loves applying new techniques and flavors from the local favorites everywhere he has cooked. Zach has experience in both casual fare and fine dining over the past 15 years, always focusing on the expectations and needs of the customer. He is new to the Raleigh area since 2017, but he and his wife/co-owner, Lindsey fell in love with the Triangle immediately. He finally found a permanent home to establish a business and also quickly found a home within the Chefs for Seniors family. Zach is so pleased to have found an opportunity to share his passion for food and connect with local Seniors. He takes great pride in his work and wants nothing more than to see if this personal chef service is the right fit for you. Zach is focusing the start-up generally in the area from North Raleigh southwest to Cary, but plans for expansion. Reach out today to see if he is in your neighborhood yet!

Lindsey Hesch

Lindsey is thrilled to be a co-owner of Chefs for Seniors with her husband, a personal chef, Chef Zach. Although you would never want her to cook for you personally, she considers herself an expert food taster and has been enjoying the benefits of Zach’s cooking for nine years. She couldn’t be happier to share this true home-cooking experience with Seniors in her community. Lindsey has over a decade of experience in project management and a passion for sustainable business practices. She will be continuing her existing career in management of environmental diligence but is beyond excited to apply this management experience to her very own business with a social mission! You can expect to meet Lindsey during customer consultations, community outreach events, business development meetings, and just about anywhere else Zach needs a set of hands. She would love to hear from you on customer requests, questions, and feedback anytime!
